November owns pumpkin and March owns mint. I think each month should have its own signature flavor.

•

January-Coffee

The holidays are over. The days are cold and short. You just need some coffee to get you up.

•

February—Cherry

It is Valentine's Day. We want something red. Cherry works.

•

March- Mint

I think this all started with the Shamrock Shake.

•

April-Marshmallow

It's Easter. It is time for Peeps. Let's have marshmallows. I also considered coconut here. It is also Passover time which means coconut macaroons. Of course, eggs work for both holidays.

•

May-Strawberry

Some fruits are finally coming into season. I have a friend who was born in May and she says she always got her first strawberries of the year on her birthday.

•

June-Lemon

It is Summer and I would like a tall glass of lemonade.

•

July-Watermellon

My sister has a 4th of July parade outside her house and she serves watermelon. This is what I associate with July.

•

August - Corn

I am going against the grain on this one. The corn in August is spectacular. I would like to see DQ come up with a corn blizzard.

•

September-Cinnamon

It is getting cooler. I'd like a little spice and cinnamon takes a back seat to no one. (I'm butchering a Seinfeld quote here.)

•

October-Caramel Apple

Some major companies start pushing Pumpkin here, but October needs its own unique flavor. October is Halloween and is known for jack-o-lanterns and caramel apples. Let's put more emphasis on the apples.

•

November-Pumpkin

•

December-Egg Nog

I could have gone with peppermint here, but we are already using mint for March.
